Your water bill is a warning sign
RE-SOLVE helps businesses find hidden water losses, cut municipal costs, and build resilience – backed by over 65 million kilolitres of proven savings.
The problem
South Africa loses nearly half its treated water before it reaches a tap. Inside your facility, the picture may be similar – continuous-flow leaks, pressure-related losses, night-time consumption spikes, and billing anomalies that quietly inflate your municipal account month after month. Non-revenue water nationally sits at 47.4%, with 40.8% lost through leaks and ageing infrastructure alone. For businesses, the risk is compounding: rising tariffs, unreliable municipal supply, and increasing regulatory pressure on water use.
What we do
Re-Solve Consulting is a specialist water engineering firm that helps businesses move from passive consumption to active water management. Through advanced monitoring, on-site intervention, leak detection, and pressure optimisation, we identify exactly how, where, and why your water is being used – and lost. Our shared savings model means we invest our own capital and recover costs only from savings achieved. You pay from results, not promises.
Beyond savings: Alternative water supply
Reducing consumption is only part of the solution. Re-Solve also designs and implements water augmentation measures that give your facility a more consistent, reliable, and independent water supply. This includes the identification, abstraction, and treatment of underground and surface water sources to potable drinking water standards, which is then connected directly into your facility’s reticulation system. The result is a meaningful reduction in your municipal water bill, combined with supply security that no longer depends entirely on a municipality’s ability to deliver. In a country where intermittent supply, infrastructure failures, and water restrictions are becoming the norm, rather than the exception, an alternative supply is not a luxury – it is a business continuity measure.
The impact
The result is measurable: lower costs, reduced waste, improved supply resilience, and a facility better prepared for the disruptions now defining South African business life. With offices across five provinces and a team of over 120 professionals, Re-Solve has been delivering these outcomes for government, municipalities, mining, and industry since 2005.
Across government, municipal, and private-sector facilities, Re-Solve has consistently achieved water consumption reductions of between 50% and 90%. Return on investment periods on pressure management, leak reduction, and water augmentation projects are typically measured in months, not years – with ongoing savings flowing directly to the client’s bottom line. These are not projections. They are audited, documented results from over 200 completed projects.
